Packet dumps at your edge would likely be helpful to your diagnosis.

At your firewall (or other edge appliance) you are seeing successful UDP from a 
high port on your system (DNS client) to port 53 on the server and a reply in 
the opposite direction.  You are not seeing success from an external client 
high port to 53 to on your server.

The two operations are absolutely disjoint when you deal with firewall tuples.

Hope this helps,
